Not 25 per cent, off the farmers of New Zealand are identified with the Farmers’ Union. Mr W. S. Swinbourn, headmaster at tlie Lansdowne School, Masterton. and previously of Watara, has been appointed vice Mr D. W. Low {retir- 1 ed) as headmaster of the College Street School, Palmerston North. . A Dargaville business man had a letter friom Te Kuiti whoch stated that someone had burgled the office of tlie King Country Chronicle in that town and had thrown cases of type and boxes of blocks into tlie river. Although some of this has been salvaged a portion of the printing business is .paralysed until a new lot can be obtained.-The whole thing is recog. nised as one of. the worst' .acts of vandalism ever perpetrated in the district.
